Tom Ford Eye Colour Quad - Crème 8G Coco Mirage

The Crème version features a creamy, blendable formula that offers a luminous finish and smooth application, ideal for a modern, seamless look. The Poudre version is a traditional powder eyeshadow, typically offering more matte or satin finishes and a different application experience.

Start with the lighter shades for a daytime look, applying them all over the lid and crease. For evening, layer the deeper shades in the crease and outer corner, and use the shimmery shade on the lid for added dimension. Blend thoroughly between layers.

Yes, the cream formula can be layered effectively. You can use a powder eyeshadow over the cream base to set it or to add different textures. It's also compatible with eyeshadow primers.

While formulated with quality ingredients, individuals with very sensitive eyes should perform a patch test first. Using an eyeshadow primer can also help create a barrier between the shadow and the skin.

Like most cream-based cosmetics, the Eye Colour Quad is generally recommended for use within 12-24 months after opening to ensure optimal performance and hygiene.

While the formula is creamy, it's designed for direct application. Adding water could alter the texture significantly. For intense color, focus on patting the product onto the lid with a dense brush or fingertip.

Ensure the compact is closed tightly after each use. Store in a cool, dry place. If dryness persists, a tiny drop of makeup setting spray or a hydrating mixing medium can sometimes revive the formula, though this should be done sparingly.

Apply a thin layer of eyeshadow primer before the cream shadow. Ensure the cream shadow is blended out smoothly and not applied too heavily without setting. For extended wear, consider lightly dusting a translucent setting powder over the cream shadow.

Use a dense brush or fingertips to pat the color onto the eyelid for maximum pigment. Layer the shades gradually to build up the desired intensity. Ensure the eyelid area is clean and dry before application.
